"Praise Will Rise" by Kwame Acheampong H.: Breaking Chains with Praise


Kwame Acheampong H. - Praise Will RiseKwame Acheampong H. released a song called "Praise Will Rise." It is a lively song that combines multiple music genres into a joyful celebration of faith. This song is inspired by several biblical stories, such as Paul and Silas singing in chains, the woman with the alabaster box, and the widow's offering.

Kwame uses these stories to show that true worship isn't tied to perfect moments. True worship thrives on our genuine surrender and hope. "Midnight in a prison cell // Pain in chains but I can tell // Something's rising in my soul." He emphasizes that God gives us the power to break chains and bring wholeness to our lives through praise and worship.

Kwame reminds us that praise strengthens us, "When they say I can't make it // When the storm tries to shake me // Your praise will be my victory!" There is no force that silences our worship when it is rooted in God's love. "I pour my worship out // Every fear, every doubt // At your feet I lay it down."

May this song inspire you to use worship as your response to life's trials. Let its energy and truth inspire you to lift your voice, no matter the storm, so that you too can sing, "Through tears and pain // My heart will sing again."

(Related scripture: Acts 16:25-26; Psalm 34:1; Mark 14:3-9)

"Heaven Country" by Jensen & Company: Where Faith Meets Fiddles

Jensen & Company's 'Heaven Country' features Heidi Jensen North. It's a song that bursts with an infectious Texas swing energy, with steel guitars, fiddles, and washboard rhythms that pull you into the vibe. Beneath this melodic energy is a message with a promise: heaven isn't just a destination, it's a homeland where every tear is wiped away!  Can you imagine streets where lions walk with lambs, hunger vanishes, and divisions dissolve into unity? What a contrast compared with today's world! One of the lines that stands out: "There's no divide - there's just one side // The Son is shining every day."  What if we were to start living today as citizens of that eternal country? What's stopping us? The song challenges us: "All the love that you've acquired here - it's your money // Be sure to fill your account." It's a call to invest in what truly lasts. You've never seen its glory, never heard its songs - but...

'Lonely Dirt Road' by Dax: A Journey to Solitude and God

Dax's 'Lonely Dirt Road' is a conversation that Dax has with himself and God. Dax shares his journey of turning mental health walks into healing solitary drives. As you listen, you can almost feel the cruise, where it's just you, your thoughts, and God.  The chorus is so relatable: 'When I need space, that's where I go, a place to escape that nobody knows.' What do you do when life's pressures stack high? Do you also have a space where you can let go? That lonely dirt road that Dax sings about symbolizes solitude, but it is also an incredible opportunity for connecting with God.  Dax's honesty is raw and relatable. 'I didn't want my family to see me cry… dealing with the pressure of trying to provide.' There are times when we all put on a smile to hide how challenging situations may be. Like his father, Dax says that he finds peace on this lonely road, where challenges become opportunities to grow. This shows the core of our faith: that...

"Jesus Is His Name" by Aaron Goodhew: The Name That Changes Everything

“Jesus Is His Name” by Aaron Goodhew is a song written as a Christ-centred declaration of who God is and what He has done. The song begins by asking, “Who designed creation and called it into being?” and quickly answers by pointing our eyes “high above the heavens” and leading us to the very place “where he rests his feet.” In other words, this is worship from creation to restoration. Each verse walks through different parts of Christ’s work: parting waters, calming storms, healing lepers, restoring outcasts, setting captives free. The chorus invites the church to confess together: "He is the Lord God // Lifted up // Mighty to be praised // Sovereign King of kings // Name above all names." But most of all, He is the personal Savior “The one who paid our ransom // The one who saved a wretch like me.” The bridge crowns this declaration, calling Jesus “wonderful counsellor, mighty king and friend,” the Lion and the Lamb whose glory we cannot fully comprehend. A declaration...
